Are you a passionate and dedicated teacher with experience in special educational needs? Do you have a strong understanding of the Code of Practice and a commitment to providing the best possible support for pupils with SEN? If so, we want you to join our team as our Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENco).

A rare opportunity has arisen to lead our incredible Learning Centre at Wycliffe Prep.

Our longstanding SENCo is starting a new venture which means that we are looking for a highly qualified, motivated and enthusiastic full-time SENCo to take over the reins.

We have a superb reputation for our SEN pupils - from dyslexia (we are Crested accredited) to dyscalculia, from social skills to working with ADHD traits.

Our SENCo is a key pivot within our staff body - highly visible and essential to the quality of teaching and learning in our school.

Wycliffe Prep is a school under new Leadership (September 2020) and there are many exciting developments which are taking place - this is certainly a school where we are looking forward.

The successful applicant will play a full part in the life of Wycliffe Prep - contribute to our extra-curricular programme, our Boarding life, Games, our Saturday mornings and residential trips.
